Which interval is the solution set to 0.35x - 4.8 < 5.2 - 0.9x?
(-∞, -8); (-∞, 8); (-8, ∞); (8, ∞)
Solution:
Given Inequality is:
0.35x - 4.8 < 5.2 - 0.9x
Grouping the terms of x coefficients and constants
⇒ 0.35x + 0.9x < 5.2 + 4.8
Adding the terms of LHS and RHS
⇒ 1.25x < 10
⇒ x < 10 / 1.25
But 10 / 1.25 = 8
x < 8
Therefore, the interval in which the solution set to 0.35x - 4.8 < 5.2 - 0.9x lies is (-∞, 8)
Which interval is the solution set to 0.35x - 4.8 < 5.2 - 0.9x? (-∞, -8); (-∞, 8); (-8, ∞); (8, ∞)
Summary:
The interval in which the solution set to 0.35x - 4.8 < 5.2 - 0.9x lies is (-∞, 8).
